# RDP Authentication

Keyless authentication will be used for RDP sessions into all workstations that have the Keyless Workforce Access Client installed.

{% hint style="info" %}
Keyless authentication will be used only for users that are not excluded from Keyless for the specific workstation.
{% endhint %}

## Step-By-Step Guide

Using the Remote Desktop Protocol application on your workstation or via the command line, initiate an RDP session for a Keyless-enabled user to a Keyless-enabled workstation:

```
mstsc /v:<your-ip-adress> (example: mstsc /v:10.20.30.01)
```
